Description

本発明は、例えば、排気ガスを消音するマフラの消音室を区画する隔壁に設けられる排気通路制御弁に関するものである。   The present invention relates to an exhaust passage control valve provided in a partition wall that partitions a muffler chamber of a muffler that silences exhaust gas, for example.

内燃機関の排気通路に配置される排気通路制御弁は、排気通路に流れる排気ガスの圧力が所定値以上になると開動作するように設定されている(例えば、特許文献1)。特許文献1の排気通路制御弁は、弁体を閉止方向に付勢するねじりコイルばねを有し、排気通路内の圧力が所定値以上になると、ばね力に抗して弁体が開状態となり、圧力が低下するとばね力により閉状態となる。   The exhaust passage control valve disposed in the exhaust passage of the internal combustion engine is set to open when the pressure of the exhaust gas flowing through the exhaust passage exceeds a predetermined value (for example, Patent Document 1). The exhaust passage control valve of Patent Document 1 has a torsion coil spring that urges the valve body in the closing direction, and when the pressure in the exhaust passage exceeds a predetermined value, the valve body is opened against the spring force. When the pressure decreases, the spring force closes.

特開2007−263057号公報JP 2007-263057 A

しかしながら、特許文献1の排気通路制御弁では、ばね力が弁体の開閉動作方向に均一に加わり難いので、弁体が傾斜して弁体の一部が弁座に接触したままで弁体の他部が弁口から離れる、いわゆる「片開き状態」になり易い。弁体が片開き状態になると、弁口を通る排気ガスの流れが乱れるために弁体が振れて、カタカタという異音を発生することがある。   However, in the exhaust passage control valve of Patent Document 1, it is difficult for the spring force to be uniformly applied in the opening / closing operation direction of the valve body, so that the valve body is inclined and a part of the valve body remains in contact with the valve seat. It tends to be in a so-called “single-open state” in which the other part is separated from the valve port. When the valve body is in a single-open state, the flow of exhaust gas through the valve port is disturbed, so that the valve body may be shaken and generate an abnormal noise.

本発明は、上記課題に鑑みてなされたもので、片開きを防いで理想的な弁開放状態となる排気通路制御弁を提供することを目的としている。   The present invention has been made in view of the above-described problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide an exhaust passage control valve that prevents a single opening and is in an ideal valve open state.

上記目的を達成するために、本発明に係る排気通路制御弁は、エンジンの排気ガスが通過する弁口を有する弁座と、前記弁口を開閉する弁体と、前記弁体に前記弁口を閉じる方向にばね力を付加する圧縮コイル形のばね体とを備え、前記弁体は、少なくとも前記弁口の内径側に対向する部位から外径側に対向する部位に至る部分に、径方向外方に進むにつれて開弁方向に偏位する弁体傾斜部が形成されている。   In order to achieve the above object, an exhaust passage control valve according to the present invention includes a valve seat having a valve port through which exhaust gas of an engine passes, a valve body for opening and closing the valve port, and the valve port in the valve body. A compression coil-shaped spring body that applies a spring force in the direction of closing the valve body, and the valve body is at least radially extending from a portion facing the inner diameter side of the valve port to a portion facing the outer diameter side. A valve body inclined portion that is displaced in the valve opening direction as it goes outward is formed.

この構成によれば、圧縮コイル形のばね体により、前記弁口の開閉方向にばね力を付加しているので、弁体全体に均一にばねの付勢力が作用し、片開きが防がれて理想的な弁の開放状態が得られる。これにより、弁体の外周部全体と弁座との間の隙間に通路が形成されるので、そこから排気ガスが円滑に排出される。また、理想的な弁の開放状態が得られる結果、弁体の振れによる作動音(弁体と弁座との接触音)の発生が防止される。   According to this configuration, since the spring force is applied in the opening and closing direction of the valve opening by the compression coil-type spring body, the spring biasing force acts uniformly on the entire valve body, preventing one-side opening. Therefore, an ideal valve open state can be obtained. As a result, a passage is formed in the gap between the entire outer peripheral portion of the valve body and the valve seat, and the exhaust gas is smoothly discharged therefrom. Further, as a result of obtaining an ideal open state of the valve, it is possible to prevent generation of an operation sound (contact sound between the valve body and the valve seat) due to the swing of the valve body.

本発明において、前記弁体および弁口は円形であり、前記ばね体の中心軸線が前記弁口の中心軸線と一致するように配置されていることが好ましい。この構成によれば、ばねの付勢力が弁口の中心軸線に沿って作用するので、弁体が弁口に対して同芯となるように押圧される結果、弁体の姿勢が安定する。   In the present invention, it is preferable that the valve body and the valve port are circular, and are arranged so that a central axis of the spring body coincides with a central axis of the valve port. According to this configuration, since the biasing force of the spring acts along the central axis of the valve port, the valve body is pressed so as to be concentric with the valve port, so that the posture of the valve body is stabilized.

本発明において、前記弁座に、開閉移動する前記弁体の外周部をガイドして径方向への移動を規制する3つ以上のガイド体が設けられ、隣接するガイド体の周方向間隔が180°未満であることが好ましい。この構成によれば、ガイド体により、弁体の径方向への移動が規制されるので、弁体の傾きが効果的に防止され、その結果、弁体の片開きに起因する作動音の発生が防止される。   In the present invention, the valve seat is provided with three or more guide bodies that guide the outer peripheral portion of the valve body that opens and closes and restricts the movement in the radial direction, and a circumferential interval between adjacent guide bodies is 180. It is preferably less than °. According to this configuration, the guide body restricts the movement of the valve body in the radial direction, so that the tilt of the valve body is effectively prevented, and as a result, the generation of operating noise due to the one-side opening of the valve body Is prevented.

また、前記ばね体の軸線方向の一端部が、前記ガイド体に支持されていることが好ましい。この構成によれば、ガイド体により前記ばねの支持部材が兼用され、部品点数の増加を抑えることができる。   Moreover, it is preferable that the one end part of the axial direction of the said spring body is supported by the said guide body. According to this configuration, the support member of the spring is also used by the guide body, and an increase in the number of parts can be suppressed.

さらに、前記弁体は円形の板材からなり、かつ、中心部に弁体の開閉移動方向に直交する平坦部を有し、前記ばね体の他端部が前記平坦部に支持されていることが好ましい。この構成によれば、平坦部で大きな排気ガスの圧力を受けることにより、この圧力の変化に対する弁体の開閉動作の追従性が向上するとともに、ばね体の他端部を安定して支持できる。   Further, the valve body is made of a circular plate material, and has a flat portion perpendicular to the opening / closing movement direction of the valve body at the center, and the other end of the spring body is supported by the flat portion. preferable. According to this configuration, by receiving a large exhaust gas pressure at the flat portion, the followability of the opening / closing operation of the valve body with respect to the change in the pressure is improved, and the other end portion of the spring body can be stably supported.

また、前記弁体と前記ガイド体に設けられたばねキャップとの間に、前記ばね体を配置することができる。この構成によれば、ばね体の復元力によって、弁体とばねキャップとの間にばね体が装着されるので、別途固定手段を省略できる。   Moreover, the said spring body can be arrange | positioned between the said valve body and the spring cap provided in the said guide body. According to this configuration, since the spring body is mounted between the valve body and the spring cap by the restoring force of the spring body, a separate fixing means can be omitted.

さらに、前記ばねキャップおよび弁体に、前記ばね体が嵌合する円形の凹所を形成してもよい。この構成によれば、ばね体の径方向の位置ずれが防止されるので、弁体の片開きが効果的に防止され、その結果、弁体の作動音の発生が防止される。   Furthermore, a circular recess into which the spring body is fitted may be formed in the spring cap and the valve body. According to this configuration, since the displacement of the spring body in the radial direction is prevented, the valve body is effectively prevented from being partially opened, and as a result, the operation sound of the valve body is prevented from being generated.

本発明において、前記ガイド体は前記弁体の開閉移動方向に延びるガイド溝を有し、前記弁体の外周部に径方向外方へ突出して前記ガイド溝に挿入される被ガイド片が設けられていることが好ましい。この構成によれば、弁体が、ガイド溝に沿って開閉移動するので、弁体の周方向への変位を防止できる。   In the present invention, the guide body has a guide groove extending in the opening / closing movement direction of the valve body, and a guided piece that protrudes radially outward and is inserted into the guide groove is provided on an outer peripheral portion of the valve body. It is preferable. According to this configuration, since the valve body is opened and closed along the guide groove, displacement of the valve body in the circumferential direction can be prevented.

本発明において、少なくとも前記ガイド体に、前記被ガイド片に当接して前記弁体の全開位置を規制するストッパ部が形成されているのが好ましい。この構成によれば、ストッパ部により弁体の全開位置が規制されるので、ばね体の過圧縮を防止することができる。   In the present invention, it is preferable that at least the guide body is formed with a stopper portion that contacts the guided piece and restricts the fully open position of the valve body. According to this configuration, since the fully open position of the valve body is regulated by the stopper portion, over-compression of the spring body can be prevented.

本発明において、前記弁座における弁口の周縁部に、前記弁体傾斜部に平行な弁座傾斜部が形成されていることが好ましい。この構成によれば、弁体傾斜部と弁座傾斜部との間に排気ガス通路が形成されるので、排気ガスが傾斜した排気ガス通路を通って円滑に排出される。   In this invention, it is preferable that the valve seat inclination part parallel to the said valve body inclination part is formed in the peripheral part of the valve opening in the said valve seat. According to this configuration, since the exhaust gas passage is formed between the valve body inclined portion and the valve seat inclined portion, the exhaust gas is smoothly discharged through the inclined exhaust gas passage.

本発明に係る排気通路制御弁によれば、圧縮コイル形のばね体により、前記弁口の開閉方向にばね力を付加しているので、弁体全体に均一にばねの付勢力が作用し、片開きのない理想的な弁の開放状態が得られる。これにより、排気ガスが弁口を通って円滑に排出されるとともに、弁体の振れによる作動音の発生が防止される。   According to the exhaust passage control valve according to the present invention, the spring force is applied in the opening / closing direction of the valve port by the compression coil-type spring body, so that the biasing force of the spring acts uniformly on the entire valve body, An ideal valve open state without a single opening is obtained. As a result, the exhaust gas is smoothly discharged through the valve port, and the generation of operating noise due to the vibration of the valve body is prevented.

以下、本発明の好ましい実施形態について図面を参照しながら説明する。図1は、例えば自動二輪車に搭載され、エンジンの排気ガスを消音するマフラ1の概略図である。マフラ1は、第一消音室2、第二消音室4および第三消音室6を有し、第一消音室2と第二消音室4、および第二消音室4と第三消音室6とは、それぞれ第一連通管8および第二連通管10で連通している。このマフラ1は、第一消音室2、第三消音室6、第二消音室4の順に配置されており、第一消音室2と第三消音室6、および第三消音室6と第二消音室4とは、それぞれ第一隔壁12、第二隔壁14で区画されている。第一消音室2には、エンジン(図示せず)からの排気ガスGが排気通路15を通って流入する入口部16が設けられ、第三消音室6には、消音された排気ガスGを排出する出口部18が設けられている。前記第一隔壁12には、排気ガスGの圧力に応じて動作する排気通路制御弁20が設けられ、第一隔壁12の一部が排気通路制御弁20の弁座22を形成している。弁座22には、エンジンの排気ガスGが通過する弁口24が形成されている。   Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a schematic view of a muffler 1 that is mounted on, for example, a motorcycle and silences engine exhaust gas. The muffler 1 includes a first silencing chamber 2, a second silencing chamber 4, and a third silencing chamber 6, a first silencing chamber 2 and a second silencing chamber 4, and a second silencing chamber 4 and a third silencing chamber 6. Are communicated with each other through the first series pipe 8 and the second series pipe 10. The muffler 1 is arranged in the order of the first silencing chamber 2, the third silencing chamber 6, and the second silencing chamber 4, and the first silencing chamber 2, the third silencing chamber 6, and the third silencing chamber 6 and the second silencing chamber 6. The silencer chamber 4 is partitioned by a first partition wall 12 and a second partition wall 14, respectively. The first silencing chamber 2 is provided with an inlet 16 through which exhaust gas G from an engine (not shown) flows through the exhaust passage 15, and the silenced exhaust gas G is introduced into the third silencing chamber 6. A discharge outlet 18 is provided. The first partition 12 is provided with an exhaust passage control valve 20 that operates according to the pressure of the exhaust gas G, and a part of the first partition 12 forms a valve seat 22 of the exhaust passage control valve 20. The valve seat 22 is formed with a valve port 24 through which the exhaust gas G of the engine passes.

図2に示すように、排気通路制御弁20は弁口24を開閉する弁体26を有し、弁体26は、圧縮コイル形のばね体28により、弁口24を閉じる方向にばね力が付加されており、第一消音室2内の排気ガスGの圧力が低い、エンジンの低回転領域では、弁口24が弁体26により閉止されて閉弁状態となる。弁座22には、図3に示すように、開閉移動する弁体26の外周部をガイドして径方向への移動を規制し、開閉方向の移動を許容する中央ガイド体32および2つの側部ガイド体34,34が設けられている。中央ガイド体32は、弁座22に固着された一対のガイドバー33,33を有し、弁体26の中央部の上方を通って弁体26の直径方向に延びている。側部ガイド体34は、中央ガイド体32の両側に位置して弁座22に固着されている。   As shown in FIG. 2, the exhaust passage control valve 20 has a valve body 26 that opens and closes the valve port 24, and the valve body 26 has a spring force in a direction to close the valve port 24 by a compression coil-shaped spring body 28. In addition, in the low engine speed region where the pressure of the exhaust gas G in the first silencing chamber 2 is low, the valve port 24 is closed by the valve body 26 and the valve is closed. As shown in FIG. 3, the valve seat 22 has a central guide body 32 that guides the outer peripheral portion of the valve body 26 that opens and closes and restricts the movement in the radial direction and allows the movement in the opening and closing direction and two sides. Part guide bodies 34 are provided. The central guide body 32 has a pair of guide bars 33, 33 fixed to the valve seat 22, and extends in the diametrical direction of the valve body 26 through above the central portion of the valve body 26. The side guide bodies 34 are fixed to the valve seat 22 on both sides of the central guide body 32.

中央ガイド体32の上部にはばねキャップ30が固着されており、ばね体28は圧縮状態で、図2に示す弁体26とばねキャップ30との間に介装されている。これら弁座22、弁口24、弁体26、ばね体28、ばねキャップ30、中央ガイド体32および側部ガイド体34により、排気通路制御弁20が構成されている。   A spring cap 30 is fixed to the upper portion of the central guide body 32, and the spring body 28 is interposed between the valve body 26 and the spring cap 30 shown in FIG. The exhaust passage control valve 20 is configured by the valve seat 22, the valve port 24, the valve body 26, the spring body 28, the spring cap 30, the central guide body 32, and the side guide body 34.

弁体26、ばね体28、ばねキャップ30、中央ガイド体32および側部ガイド体34は、第三消音室6側すなわち低圧雰囲気中に配置される。弁体26の一部は、第一消音室2と第三消音室6とを仕切る壁面の一部を形成し、第一消音室2側、すなわち高圧雰囲気中に露出して受圧面である弁体平坦面26aを構成する。   The valve body 26, the spring body 28, the spring cap 30, the center guide body 32, and the side guide body 34 are arranged on the third silencing chamber 6 side, that is, in a low pressure atmosphere. A part of the valve body 26 forms a part of a wall surface that partitions the first silencing chamber 2 and the third silencing chamber 6, and is a valve that is exposed to the first silencing chamber 2 side, that is, a high pressure atmosphere and is a pressure receiving surface. A body flat surface 26a is formed.

図3からわかるように、弁口24および弁体26は円形である。図5に示すように、弁座22における弁口24の周縁部には、弁口24の中心軸線C1に直交する円形の面である弁座平坦部22aが形成されている。弁座平坦部22aの周縁部には、径方向外方に進むにつれて開弁方向OPに偏位する弁座傾斜部22bが形成されている。 As can be seen from FIG. 3, the valve opening 24 and the valve body 26 are circular. As shown in FIG. 5, a valve seat flat portion 22 a that is a circular surface orthogonal to the central axis C <b> 1 of the valve port 24 is formed at the peripheral portion of the valve port 24 in the valve seat 22. A valve seat inclined portion 22b that is displaced in the valve opening direction OP as it progresses radially outward is formed at the peripheral edge of the valve seat flat portion 22a.

弁体26は板材からなり、中心部に弁口24の中心軸線C1、すなわち弁体26の開閉移動方向に直交する円形の弁体平坦部26aを有し、この弁体平坦部26aが弁口24に嵌まり込むことで、弁体26が弁口24を閉止する。弁体平坦部26aは、その周辺部分よりも閉弁方向CLへ若干凹入して、弁体凹所27が形成されている。つまり、弁体平坦部26aの周縁部26aaは開弁方向OPに折り曲げられ、開弁時に、この周縁部26aaが弁口24の開口縁24aに径方向に接触する。弁体平坦部26aの外面には第一消音室2内の排気ガスGの圧力が作用する。さらに、この周縁部26aaから径方向外方に進むにつれて開弁方向OPに偏位する弁体傾斜部26bが形成されている。弁体傾斜部26bは、円錐体の周面に沿う形状に形成され、弁座平坦部22aおよび弁座傾斜部22bに対向している。これら弁体平坦部26aおよび弁体傾斜部26bは、板材を曲げ加工することにより形成される。弁体の開弁時に弁体傾斜部26bと弁座平坦部22a,弁座傾斜部22bとの間に排気通路15aが形成される。   The valve body 26 is made of a plate material, and has a central valve axis 26 in the center axis C1, that is, a circular valve body flat portion 26a orthogonal to the opening / closing movement direction of the valve body 26. The valve body 26 closes the valve port 24 by being fitted into the valve 24. The valve body flat part 26a is slightly recessed in the valve closing direction CL from its peripheral part, and a valve body recess 27 is formed. That is, the peripheral edge portion 26aa of the valve body flat portion 26a is bent in the valve opening direction OP, and the peripheral edge portion 26aa contacts the opening edge 24a of the valve port 24 in the radial direction when the valve is opened. The pressure of the exhaust gas G in the first silencing chamber 2 acts on the outer surface of the flat valve body 26a. Furthermore, the valve body inclination part 26b which deviates in the valve opening direction OP as it progresses radially outward from this peripheral part 26aa is formed. The valve body inclined portion 26b is formed in a shape along the peripheral surface of the cone, and faces the valve seat flat portion 22a and the valve seat inclined portion 22b. These flat valve body portions 26a and inclined valve body portions 26b are formed by bending a plate material. An exhaust passage 15a is formed between the valve body inclined portion 26b, the valve seat flat portion 22a, and the valve seat inclined portion 22b when the valve body is opened.

弁体傾斜部26bと弁座傾斜部22bとは互いにほぼ平行な面であり、両傾斜部22b,26b間に、排気ガスGに対する通気性を有する、スチールウールからなる緩衝材35が介装されている。本実施形態では、緩衝材35は周方向に約90°の間隔をあけて4つ設けているが、数や位置はこれに限定されず、例えば全周に設けてもよい。   The valve body inclined portion 26b and the valve seat inclined portion 22b are substantially parallel to each other, and a cushioning material 35 made of steel wool having air permeability to the exhaust gas G is interposed between the inclined portions 22b and 26b. ing. In the present embodiment, four cushioning materials 35 are provided at intervals of about 90 ° in the circumferential direction, but the number and position are not limited thereto, and may be provided, for example, on the entire circumference.

弁体傾斜部26bの外周部には、図3に示す径方向外方へ突出する複数、例えば4つの突片36が一体に形成されている。弁体26の突片36は、後述するように、ガイド体32,34に案内されて弁体26の開閉移動方向に移動し、弁体26の周方向への変位、すなわち回動が防止される。本実施形態では、突片36は周方向に約90°の間隔をあけて4つ設けているが、数や位置はこれに限定されず、1つ以上あればよい。また、弁体26の外周をガイドするガイド体32,34は、3つ以上で、且つ隣接するガイド体32,34の周方向間隔が180°未満であればよく、これにより、弁体26の径方向の移動を阻止できる。   A plurality of, for example, four projecting pieces 36 projecting outward in the radial direction shown in FIG. 3 are integrally formed on the outer peripheral portion of the valve body inclined portion 26b. As will be described later, the projecting piece 36 of the valve body 26 is guided by the guide bodies 32 and 34 and moves in the opening / closing movement direction of the valve body 26, thereby preventing the valve body 26 from being displaced in the circumferential direction, that is, rotating. The In the present embodiment, four protrusions 36 are provided at intervals of about 90 ° in the circumferential direction, but the number and position are not limited to this, and one or more protrusions 36 may be provided. Moreover, the guide bodies 32 and 34 which guide the outer periphery of the valve body 26 should be three or more and the circumferential interval between the adjacent guide bodies 32 and 34 may be less than 180 °. It is possible to prevent radial movement.

突片36に対応する位置に前記ガイド体32,34が設けられている。中央ガイド体32を形成する各ガイドバー33は鋼製の棒状部材からなり、棒状部材の中央部を幅広のU字状に折り曲げて、弁体26の上方に位置する、弁座22と平行な頂部33aと、その両側の上り部33bとを形成し、さらに両端部を弁座22と平行になるように折り曲げて、足部33cを形成している。両端の足部33cが弁座22に、例えば溶接により固着されている。2つのガイドバー33の頂部33aには、頂壁部材46が固着されている。頂壁部材46は、図2に示すように、平面視でほぼ長方形で、長手方向の両端部46a,46aが弁座22に向かってほぼ90°に折り曲げられている。頂壁部材46の長手方向中央部には、両端部46a,46aの折り曲げ方向と反対方向に凹入した、図3に示す円形のばねキャップ30が一体形成されている。頂部33aの中央部分は、ばねキャップ30の外周形状に沿って湾曲しており、両ガイドバー33の頂部33aの湾曲部分の間にばねキャップ30が嵌め込まれた状態で、頂壁部材46がガイドバー33,33に固着されている。図4に示すように、互いに平行に延びた立上り部33b,33b間に第1ガイド溝40が形成されている。 The guide bodies 32 and 34 are provided at positions corresponding to the projecting pieces 36. Each guide bar 33 forming the central guide body 32 is made of a steel rod-shaped member, and the central portion of the rod-shaped member is bent into a wide U shape so as to be parallel to the valve seat 22 positioned above the valve body 26. A top portion 33 a and an upward portion 33 b on both sides thereof are formed, and both end portions are bent so as to be parallel to the valve seat 22 to form a foot portion 33 c. The foot portions 33c at both ends are fixed to the valve seat 22 by welding, for example. A top wall member 46 is fixed to the top portions 33 a of the two guide bars 33. As shown in FIG. 2, the top wall member 46 has a substantially rectangular shape in plan view, and both end portions 46 a and 46 a in the longitudinal direction are bent at approximately 90 ° toward the valve seat 22. A circular spring cap 30 shown in FIG. 3, which is recessed in the direction opposite to the bending direction of both end portions 46 a, 46 a, is integrally formed at the longitudinal center portion of the top wall member 46. The central portion of the top portion 33 a is curved along the outer peripheral shape of the spring cap 30, and the top wall member 46 is guided by the spring cap 30 being fitted between the curved portions of the top portions 33 a of both guide bars 33. It is fixed to the bars 33 and 33. As shown in FIG. 4, the 1st guide groove 40 is formed between the rising parts 33b and 33b extended in parallel with each other.

第2ガイド体34も鋼製の棒状部材からなり、図2に示すように、棒状部材の中央部をU字状に曲げて湾曲した頂部34aと、その両側の立上り部34b,34bとを形成し、両立上り部34b,34b間に第2ガイド溝42を形成している。棒状部材の両端部は弁座22と平行となるように折り曲げられて足部34c,34cとなっており、足部34cが弁座22に、例えば溶接により固着されている。図3の相対向する一対の突片36が第1ガイド溝40に挿入され、相対向する他の一対の突片36が第2ガイド溝42に挿入されて、弁体26の開閉動作方向に案内され、弁体26の周方向の変位、つまり回動が規制される。このように、突片36は被ガイド片として作用する。また、第2ガイド体34の頂部34aはストッパ部として作用し、突片36がこのストッパ部34aに当接することで、弁体26の全開位置が規制される。   The second guide body 34 is also made of a steel rod-like member, and as shown in FIG. 2, a top portion 34a curved by bending the central portion of the rod-like member into a U shape, and rising portions 34b, 34b on both sides thereof are formed. In addition, a second guide groove 42 is formed between the compatible ascending portions 34b and 34b. Both end portions of the rod-like member are bent to be parallel to the valve seat 22 to form foot portions 34c and 34c, and the foot portion 34c is fixed to the valve seat 22 by, for example, welding. A pair of opposing projecting pieces 36 in FIG. 3 are inserted into the first guide groove 40, and another pair of opposing projecting pieces 36 are inserted into the second guide groove 42, so that the valve body 26 opens and closes in the opening / closing operation direction. It is guided and the displacement of the valve body 26 in the circumferential direction, that is, the rotation is restricted. Thus, the projecting piece 36 acts as a guided piece. Further, the top portion 34a of the second guide body 34 acts as a stopper portion, and the projecting piece 36 abuts against the stopper portion 34a, whereby the fully open position of the valve body 26 is regulated.

図5に示すように、ばね体28は、一端部28aがばねキャップ30の内側の凹所48に嵌合され、他端部28bが弁体平坦部26aの弁体凹所27に嵌合され、その中心軸線C2が弁口24の中心軸線C1とほぼ一致するように配置されている。これにより、ばね体28による付勢力が弁口24の中心軸線C1に沿って作用するから、弁体26が弁口24に対して同芯となるように押圧される結果、弁体26の姿勢が安定する。   As shown in FIG. 5, one end portion 28a of the spring body 28 is fitted into the recess 48 inside the spring cap 30, and the other end portion 28b is fitted into the valve body recess 27 of the valve body flat portion 26a. The central axis C2 is arranged so as to substantially coincide with the central axis C1 of the valve port 24. As a result, the urging force of the spring body 28 acts along the central axis C1 of the valve port 24, so that the valve body 26 is pressed so as to be concentric with the valve port 24. Is stable.

つぎに、排気通路制御弁20の作用について説明する。エンジンからの排気ガスG、図1に示す排気通路15を経て入口部16を通って、エンジンからの排気ガスGが第一消音室2に流入する。エンジンの低回転時は排気ガスGの圧力が低いので、排気制御弁20が閉弁しており、排気ガスGは、第一消音室2で膨張したのちに第一連通管8を通って第二消音室4に流入する。さらに、第二消音室4で膨張したのちに第二連通管10を通って第三消音室6に流入し、第三消音室6での膨張を経て出口部18から外部へ排出される。   Next, the operation of the exhaust passage control valve 20 will be described. The exhaust gas G from the engine and the exhaust gas G from the engine flow into the first muffler chamber 2 through the exhaust passage 15 shown in FIG. Since the pressure of the exhaust gas G is low when the engine is running at a low speed, the exhaust control valve 20 is closed, and the exhaust gas G passes through the first series pipe 8 after expanding in the first silencing chamber 2. It flows into the second silencing chamber 4. Furthermore, after expanding in the second silencing chamber 4, it flows into the third silencing chamber 6 through the second communication pipe 10, passes through the expansion in the third silencing chamber 6, and is discharged to the outside from the outlet 18.

エンジンの回転数が上昇し、弁体26の弁体平坦部26aに作用する上向きの排気ガスGの圧力が、図2に示すばね体28の復元力よりも大きくなると、図6に示すように、排気ガスGの圧力で弁体26が持ち上げられ、第一消音室2と第三消音室6とが連通し、第一消音室2内の排気ガスGが、第二消音室4(図1)を経ずに、排気制御弁20を通って第三消音室6に流入する。さらに、排気通路内の排気ガスGの圧力が、ばね体28の復元力よりも小さくなると、ばね体28の復元力により弁体26が弁口24を塞いで、図1のように、排気ガスGは第一消音室2、第二消音室4、第三消音室6の順に流れて出口部18から外部へ排出される。   When the engine speed increases and the pressure of the upward exhaust gas G acting on the valve body flat portion 26a of the valve body 26 becomes larger than the restoring force of the spring body 28 shown in FIG. 2, as shown in FIG. The valve body 26 is lifted by the pressure of the exhaust gas G, the first silencing chamber 2 and the third silencing chamber 6 communicate with each other, and the exhaust gas G in the first silencing chamber 2 flows into the second silencing chamber 4 (FIG. 1). ), The air flows into the third silencing chamber 6 through the exhaust control valve 20. Further, when the pressure of the exhaust gas G in the exhaust passage becomes smaller than the restoring force of the spring body 28, the valve body 26 closes the valve port 24 by the restoring force of the spring body 28, and the exhaust gas is exhausted as shown in FIG. G flows in the order of the first silencing chamber 2, the second silencing chamber 4, and the third silencing chamber 6, and is discharged from the outlet 18 to the outside.

上記構成において、図3に示す圧縮コイル形のばね体28により、弁口24の中心軸線C1、すなわち弁口24の開閉方向にばね力を付加しているので、弁体26全体に均一にばねの付勢力が作用し、図6のような片開きが防がれて理想的な弁の開放状態が得られる。これにより、弁体26の外周部全体と弁座22との間の隙間に通路が形成されるので、そこから排気ガスGが円滑に排出される。また、理想的な弁の開放状態が得られる結果、弁体26の振れによる作動音の発生が防止される。   In the above configuration, the spring force is applied to the central axis C1 of the valve port 24, that is, the opening / closing direction of the valve port 24 by the compression coil-shaped spring body 28 shown in FIG. The urging force of FIG. 6 acts, and the one-sided opening as shown in FIG. 6 is prevented, and an ideal valve open state is obtained. As a result, a passage is formed in the gap between the entire outer peripheral portion of the valve body 26 and the valve seat 22, so that the exhaust gas G is smoothly discharged therefrom. In addition, as a result of obtaining an ideal opened state of the valve, it is possible to prevent the generation of operating noise due to the swing of the valve body 26.

さらに、弁体26および弁口24は円形であり、ばね体28の中心軸線C2が弁口24の中心軸線C1と一致するように配置されているので、ばね体28による付勢力が弁口24の中心軸線C1に沿って作用するから、弁体26が弁口24に対して同芯となるように押圧される結果、弁体26の姿勢が安定する。   Further, the valve body 26 and the valve port 24 are circular, and are arranged so that the central axis C2 of the spring body 28 coincides with the central axis C1 of the valve port 24. Since the valve body 26 is pressed so as to be concentric with the valve port 24, the posture of the valve body 26 is stabilized.

また、弁座22に、開閉移動する弁体26の外周部をガイドして径方向への移動を規制する図3の4つのガイド体32,34が設けられているので、弁体26の傾きが効果的に防止され、その結果、弁体26の片開きに起因する作動音の発生が防止される。さらに、ガイド体32,34が周方向に等間隔、具体的には90°間隔で設けられているので、一層効果的に傾きを防止できる。   Further, since the valve seat 22 is provided with the four guide bodies 32 and 34 shown in FIG. 3 that guide the outer peripheral portion of the valve body 26 that opens and closes and restricts the movement in the radial direction, the inclination of the valve body 26 is provided. Is effectively prevented, and as a result, generation of operating noise due to the one-side opening of the valve body 26 is prevented. Furthermore, since the guide bodies 32 and 34 are provided at equal intervals in the circumferential direction, specifically at 90 ° intervals, the tilt can be more effectively prevented.

さらに、図5に示すばね体28の軸線方向の一端部28aが、中央ガイド体32に一体形成されたキャップ30の内側に支持されているので、中央ガイド体32によりばね体28の支持部材が兼用され、部品点数の増加を抑えることができる。   Furthermore, since one end portion 28a in the axial direction of the spring body 28 shown in FIG. 5 is supported on the inner side of the cap 30 formed integrally with the central guide body 32, the support member for the spring body 28 is supported by the central guide body 32. It can also be used to suppress an increase in the number of parts.

また、弁体平坦部26aに、ばね体28の他端部28bが支持されているので、弁体平坦部26aで大きな排気ガスGの圧力を受けることにより、この圧力の変化に対する弁体26の開閉動作の追従性が向上するとともに、ばね体28の他端部28bを安定して支持できる。   Further, since the other end portion 28b of the spring body 28 is supported by the valve body flat portion 26a, when the valve body flat portion 26a receives a large exhaust gas G pressure, The followability of the opening / closing operation is improved, and the other end portion 28b of the spring body 28 can be stably supported.

さらに、弁体26と、ガイド体32に設けられたばねキャップ30との間に、ばね体28が配置されており、ばね体28の復元力によって、弁体26とばねキャップ30との間にばね体28が装着されるので、別途固定手段を省略できる。   Further, a spring body 28 is disposed between the valve body 26 and a spring cap 30 provided on the guide body 32, and a spring is provided between the valve body 26 and the spring cap 30 by the restoring force of the spring body 28. Since the body 28 is mounted, a separate fixing means can be omitted.

また、弁体26およびばねキャップ30に、ばね体28の両端部28a,28bが嵌合する円形の凹所27,48がそれぞれ形成されているから、ばね体28の径方向の位置ずれが防止されることで、弁体26の片開きが効果的に防止される。   Further, since the circular recesses 27 and 48 into which both end portions 28a and 28b of the spring body 28 are fitted are formed in the valve body 26 and the spring cap 30, respectively, the radial displacement of the spring body 28 is prevented. By doing so, one-sided opening of the valve body 26 is effectively prevented.

さらに、図3に示す各ガイド体32,34のガイド溝40(図4),42(図2)に沿って、弁体26の突片36が移動するので、弁体26の周方向への角変位を防止できる。   Further, since the projecting piece 36 of the valve body 26 moves along the guide grooves 40 (FIG. 4) and 42 (FIG. 2) of the guide bodies 32 and 34 shown in FIG. 3, the circumferential direction of the valve body 26 is increased. Angular displacement can be prevented.

また、突片36が、図2の第2ガイド体34のストッパ部34aに当接することで、弁体26の全開位置が規制されるので、ばね体28の過圧縮を防止することができる。   Further, since the projecting piece 36 abuts against the stopper portion 34a of the second guide body 34 in FIG. 2, the fully open position of the valve body 26 is restricted, so that the spring body 28 can be prevented from being overcompressed.

さらに、図5の弁座22における弁口24の周縁部に、弁体傾斜部26bに平行な弁座傾斜部22bが形成されているから、弁体傾斜部26bと弁座傾斜部22bとの間に傾斜した排気ガス通路15aが形成される。したがって、第一消音室2内の排気ガスGが弁口24から排気ガス通路15aに入る際に、90°よりも小さい偏向角で偏向されるだけで済むから、排気ガスGが傾斜した排気ガス通路15aを通って円滑に第三消音室6内に排出される。   Furthermore, since the valve seat inclined part 22b parallel to the valve body inclined part 26b is formed in the peripheral part of the valve port 24 in the valve seat 22 of FIG. 5, the valve body inclined part 26b and the valve seat inclined part 22b An inclined exhaust gas passage 15a is formed therebetween. Therefore, when the exhaust gas G in the first silencing chamber 2 enters the exhaust gas passage 15a from the valve port 24, it is only necessary to deflect the exhaust gas G with a deflection angle smaller than 90 °. It is smoothly discharged into the third silencing chamber 6 through the passage 15a.

また、図1に示すように、排気通路制御弁20の開閉方向は、閉弁状態で排気ガスGが流れる方向、つまり、第一隔壁12の壁面と平行な方向に対して、ほぼ直交する方向となっているので、排気ガス流量が急激に変化しても、排気ガスGが勢いよく図2の弁体平坦面26aに衝突するのが避けられ、不所望な排気通路制御弁20の開閉を防ぐことができる。さらに、弁体傾斜部26bが弁体26の全周にわたって形成され、弁口24よりも十分大きな直径を有しているので、図6に示すように、排気ガスGが弁口24から放射状に周方向にわたって均一に流れることになり、片開きを一層確実に防ぐことができる。また、図5の突片36が、弁体平坦面26aおよび弁座22から開弁方向OPに偏位した位置に配置されているので、仮に、弁体26が若干傾斜したとしても、突片36が弁座22に衝突することがなく、衝突音が発生しない。   As shown in FIG. 1, the opening and closing direction of the exhaust passage control valve 20 is substantially perpendicular to the direction in which the exhaust gas G flows in the closed state, that is, the direction parallel to the wall surface of the first partition wall 12. Therefore, even if the exhaust gas flow rate changes suddenly, the exhaust gas G can be prevented from colliding with the valve body flat surface 26a of FIG. 2 vigorously, and the exhaust passage control valve 20 can be opened and closed undesirably. Can be prevented. Furthermore, since the valve body inclined portion 26b is formed over the entire circumference of the valve body 26 and has a diameter sufficiently larger than that of the valve port 24, the exhaust gas G radiates from the valve port 24 as shown in FIG. It flows uniformly over the circumferential direction, and can be prevented more reliably. Further, since the projecting piece 36 of FIG. 5 is disposed at a position deviated from the valve body flat surface 26a and the valve seat 22 in the valve opening direction OP, even if the valve body 26 is slightly inclined, the projecting piece 36 does not collide with the valve seat 22, and no collision sound is generated.

以上のとおり、図面を参照しながら本発明の好適な実施形態を説明したが、本発明の趣旨を逸脱しない範囲内で、種々の追加、変更または削除が可能である。例えば、ばねキャップ30を第1ガイド体42方向へ延設して、ばねキャップ30と第1ガイド体42とを固着して一体化させることができる。これにより、ばねキャップ30およびガイド体32の強度を向上させることができる。   As described above, the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described with reference to the drawings, but various additions, modifications, or deletions can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention. For example, the spring cap 30 can be extended in the direction of the first guide body 42 so that the spring cap 30 and the first guide body 42 can be fixed and integrated. Thereby, the strength of the spring cap 30 and the guide body 32 can be improved.

また、本実施形態では、3つの消音室2,4,6が設けられているが、3つ以上であってもよい。また、排気通路制御弁22は、閉弁時に比べて開弁時の流路抵抗が小さくなるように設定される位置に設けられればよく、例えば、第一消音室2と第三消音室6とを連通する第一連通管8を開閉するように設けてもよい。したがって、そのようなものも本発明の範囲内に含まれる。   In the present embodiment, the three sound deadening chambers 2, 4, 6 are provided, but three or more may be provided. Further, the exhaust passage control valve 22 may be provided at a position that is set so that the flow path resistance at the time of valve opening becomes smaller than that at the time of valve closing, for example, the first muffler chamber 2 and the third muffler chamber 6. You may provide so that the 1st continuous pipe 8 which connects may be opened and closed. Therefore, such a thing is also included in the scope of the present invention.
